Siheyuan: I have super connections

Chapter 290 Gold turns into brass

Upon hearing Jia Zhang's question, Taoist Master Zhicong didn't explain anything. He just said, "You have no connection with our sect, so please come back."

Jia Zhang was about to act up on the spot, but Yao Xiuli pulled her out.

Yao Xiuli complained: "How could you do this? If I had known you were this kind of person, I wouldn't have brought you here?"

"Where did I say something wrong? I'm just asking, since he can turn stones into gold, why not just turn a mountain into gold and give it to us?"

"You really don't understand anything."

"Of course I don't understand, so I need him to explain."

"Forget it, let me explain. This kind of spell consumes a lot of energy and energy. Every time the spell is cast, the Taoist Priest will be weak for a long time. This money is our intention to replenish the Taoist Priest's health."

"So that's it. If you said this earlier, wouldn't I understand? But thirty yuan per gram of gold is too expensive, isn't it?"

Ms. Jia Zhang didn’t know how much one gram weighed, so she instinctively wanted to bargain.

Yao Xiuli said: "Thirty yuan per gram is not expensive at all, but very cheap. If you don't believe it, you can go to a gold store in the city and ask. Now it costs fifty or sixty yuan per gram!"

Jia Zhang's eyes lit up and she asked, "Is the price really so high?"

"Of course, I can still lie to you? I won't see you these days. I have to raise money. Whether I can make a fortune this time depends on how much money I can get."

Jia Zhang thought so, so she followed her back to the city.

The two separated near the park. Jia Zhang was a little uneasy, so she went to a nearby gold store to ask about the price.

Sure enough, as Yao Xiuli said, one gram of gold costs more than fifty yuan.

The price is different in each store, the expensive one is 58 yuan, and the cheap one is 51 yuan.

Of course, this is the price charged. If you buy it, the uniform price is 60 yuan.

Jia Zhang used her little brain to calculate that she could earn twenty-eight yuan per gram, which was a sure-fire business.

When Jia Zhang returned home, she began to think about her family fortune.

She has saved some money over the years. Counting the 2,500 yuan Xiaodang gave her, she has 3,706 yuan on hand.

Jia Zhang shook her head, how much can she earn with this little money?

Jia Zhang thought of Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu had made tens of thousands of yuan by opening a store. If he took it and used it, he could earn nearly ten thousand yuan by changing hands.

But she didn't tell Qin Huairu. If she had told Qin Huairu, wouldn't she have to share her money in the end?

So Jia Zhang planned to steal Qin Huairu's bankbook and then withdraw the money.

The Jia family is not big, so Jia and Zhang know where Qin Huairu hid the bankbook.

It's just that she didn't have the need to use money before. If she really needs money anyway, she can just take it.

So she didn't touch it before, but when she wanted to use it this time, she secretly found the bankbook while Qin Huairu was not at home.

These days, passbooks don’t even have passwords. As long as you have the passbook and your personal seal, you can withdraw money directly.

Jia Zhang ran to the bank and wanted to withdraw all the 14,000 yuan Qin Huairu had saved.

Of course the bank will ask if you want to withdraw so much money at once.

Jia Zhang made an excuse, saying that Qin Huairu was seriously ill and needed a lot of money for surgery.

The people at the bank actually believed it and gave her the money directly.

Jia Zhang took a total of 17,700 yuan and went to Baihe Temple again.

Yao Xiuli was already waiting here. She asked, "How much did you get?"

"Not much, what about you?"

"Not much."

The two of them laughed and went in together.

Taoist Master Zhicong had been waiting for a long time. Compared with the previous days, he was much weaker and older.

Mrs. Jia Zhang was a little surprised and said, "Taoist Priest, I haven't seen you for only three days. Why do you have so many white hairs?"

"Isn't it just for you? This time I damaged my vitality and turned out a lot of gold."

Yao Xiuli immediately said: "Thank you very much. Taoist Master, this is the seven thousand yuan I prepared. Please keep it!"

Taoist Master Zhicong nodded and said, "Yes, this gold brick weighs almost a pound. I'll give it to you. The more it is, the more it belongs to you."

Jia Zhang asked: "How many grams is this pound?"

"Five hundred grams."

Jia Zhang used her little brain to calculate and found that seven thousand yuan could buy more than 230 grams here, but the Taoist priest actually gave 500 grams. This was really generous.

She said happily: "Taoist Master, I got 17,700 yuan, how much can you give me?"

Taoist priest Zhi Cong was shocked. He didn't expect to have so much money.

He said: "I have seen your sincerity, let's do this. I will give you ten pounds of gold bricks!"

Mrs. Jia Zhang was so happy that she originally thought she could only buy a little more than one kilogram of gold, but she didn't expect the Taoist priest to be so generous and gave her a piece weighing ten kilograms. This was ten times more!

She thanked him repeatedly, and then saw Taoist Master Zhicong take out ten gold bricks of the same size.

Jia Zhang picked up a piece and said proudly to Yao Xiuli: "Look, I have so much more than you!"

Yao Xiuli smiled and said nothing.

Taoist Master Zhicong said: "Okay, now that you have got the gold, go back and don't come to me again."

Jia Zhang didn't take it seriously. She decided that she would come again in the future. How could such a profitable thing be done only once?

Mrs. Jia Zhang put the ten kilograms of gold bricks into her pocket and carried them away.

She usually does nothing, but this time she didn't feel tired at all after walking for several miles carrying a ten-pound gold brick.

The first thing Jia Zhang did when she returned to the city was to find a gold shop to sell her gold.

As soon as she came in, she shouted: "Get your boss out!"

The guy asked, "What can I do for you?"

"I have a big deal to discuss with your boss."

The guy was so frightened by her that he actually called the boss out.

The boss asked: "I heard that you have a big deal to discuss with me?"

"Yes, I sold you this gold brick. How much did you pay?"

When the gold brick appeared, the boss was shocked. He thought it was really a gold brick.

But as soon as he got it, he started laughing.

The boss said: "Old lady, you are mistaken, this is not gold, this is brass!"

"What? You dare to lie to me?"

"I'm not lying to you, this is really brass. You have to know that gold and brass look very similar in appearance. They are both golden. But gold is much heavier than brass, almost twice as heavy.

That is to say, gold is twice as heavy as brass for the same size. If this were gold, it would weigh at least two kilograms, but this is only one kilogram, and this is brass! "

Jia Zhang was very angry. She thought that the shop owner wanted to defraud her of her gold, so she said this.

So without saying a word, she took the 'gold' and went to another house.

As a result, I went to seven stores in a row, and without exception, everyone said it was brass. Only then did Jia Zhang finally believe it, and she had been fooled!
